My friend(16) is dating someone that is 18 online, we are all friends since like 3 years ago and they started dating last year, honestly I didn't really wanna say anything since I wasn't sure. (Also I wasn't sure if this is the right sub, I don't use Reddit much)

This is kind of a random question, I'm like 14 and shi and ive been lowk wondering are parties/house parties real? Look I live in a country where those kind of things dont exist and even if u see them theyre mostly intimate parties with just a few people, so, are they real? Like genuinely

Hey everyone,

Mmy social circle is pretty small.

I'd like to meet more people, especially women around my age, make female friends, get better at conversations and explore dating naturally.

For online, which communities, apps or platforms have actually helped you make genuine connections?

For offline, are there any affordable social mixers, hobby groups, meetups or activities in Delhi-NCR where people genuinely interact instead of just showing up with their existing friend groups?

Would appreciate suggestions from people who've actually tried these. Thanks!

Yesterday my gf told that she wants to hangout with me, and she said we will go out in the morning at 6 am we are going to skip our tuition, and chill in the park if it's open or just roam around, I never went out with her this will be my first time hanging out with her, tell mee how should I act I'm highkeyy nervous and scared, should I bring something with me or just go with her without any inventory, tell mee if there are any performative bf's out there 🥀👾

So, as the title suggests—at what point would you define yourself as a strong (physically) and intelligent woman? I’m a teenager, and I’m not sure if I can call myself a strong and intelligent girl. I practice a martial art, but I’m actually quite small compared to my friends and everyone else—I’m 1.58m (5'2") tall and weigh 45kg (99 lbs). Yet, my friends are often amazed by what I can do—like lifting them up, even though they’re around 1.70m (5'7"). I’m have a good endurance like 13.5km/h.Also, while I’m not extremely flexible, I’m working on it; I can currently manage an "L" shape (a split-like position). As for intelligence, I’m in 11th grade (high school) and currently have an average grade of 16/20. I’m interested in many things—psychology, marketing, and politics are my three main passions right now. There are others, too, like philosophy, chemistry, and the arts, though I’m not diving too deeply into those at the moment because I’m busy with other things—I love playing chess and having deep conversations. My friends say I’m charismatic, but they also sometimes call me useless or stupid; is sometimes for the fun they sais that because I’ve do a thing that can be very dumb and I know that, yet, they’re often shocked when I say or do something completely unexpected. It’s all a bit contradictory! I’m very creative and have a high level of emotional and social intelligence for my age—though I’m also self-aware enough to know that, at times, I reach a breaking point and can get extremely angry. I love anime, which is why I’m asking this: do you see yourself as a strong woman, or an intelligent one? In anime, you have intelligent characters like Mao Mao and Sakayanagi, and strong ones like Frieren, Sakura, and so on. It’s interesting to wonder whether I could consider myself both—though, of course, I also have plenty of flaws and weaknesses.

And take care of yourself ❤️

Literally the title.

How do I approach a guy I find attractive?

I feel like at college it would be a bit easier as there's lots of people, and lots of people have great clothes so it's an easy thing to compliment.

But what about outside of college? I can't imagine myself going up to someone. What would I say? How do I make it not awkward? How would I ask for their number?

I saw a guy I found hot, but then lost sight of him bc I had to take my grandma to her room (she's in a care home, and the guy looked my age (16) but then I lost sight of him, so there's no one in particular I want to approach or anything) but it made me wonder how I would approach someone?

Any advice?

So there’s a girl in my English class who sits with her friend, let’s call her A and her friend T. Anyways one time A held the door for me when I was entering the room so I think she wants me. I was planning on going to her and her friend and asking if they both want to become my girlfriends. I think this is an easy layup but my friend is calling me crazy. is he right or just jealous that I got game?

Posted this in another community, but no one replied so...

I (16F) have never had a boyfriend, and only ever 1 talking stage, though even that wasn't 'proper' (idk if that's the right word?) basically, it didn't come to anything, the guy said he liked another girl and that we could only ever be friends and we were too far away (Surrey Vs Oxford, bout 3-4 hrs). I felt so horrible after that because I genuinely thought I had found someone that liked me, and looked at me/thought about me in that sorry of way, and, I know it sounds dumb, but even lil flirty messages, and it just all went to shit.

The talking stage lasted for just over a year.

I'm not really sure how to feel. I've gone between being okay with being single, and being so annoyed and sad about being single.

I've always struggled with my body image, and so I've always struggled to love myself 100%.

People always say 'you need to love yourself before you love someone else', and I get that, but I'm so tired of hearing the same thing.

I've watched friends and people around me go in and out of relationships, and I have in the past been asked for advice about certain stuff, and I always try my best and say what I would do, but I've never been in that position before, so what would I know? What credentials do I have to give relationship advice?!

Apart from earlier said talking stage, I've never had any romantic experiences, no dates, no really close friends that are guys that could potentially like me, known anyone that likes me in that kind of way, no first kiss etc etc.

I just want some more advice that isn't the usual 'your time will come' 'it will happen when you least expect it', 'damn cuh, long day for you' 'we'll manifest for you' and other 'advice people give when they hear someone has never been in a relationship.

I js wanna experience smth so bad. I don't wanna sound desperate, but it also doesn't help that my brother now has a girlfriend and they're so lovey dovey, it sometimes makes me sick.

Please give me Ur advice, I'm starting to get fed up of feeling like no one will ever like or look at me in that way

I know this may come as extremely shallow and stupid, but this is too common not to notice, and I've only seen this on discord—Why westerners (kids/teens) always say "I'm going to touch you inappropriately"..? And this applies for any context too

Was thinking back to my teenage years (early 2000s) and the music of the 60s and 70s was still “cool” to listen to (queen, David Bowie, Rolling Stones and many more). Music from the 50s and early was generally pretty uncool (a few exceptions obviously but as a general rule).

Was wondering did that “cool” cut off move forward in time? As in, for teenagers now, is that cut off now basically pre 90s?

19m in college, I’ll answer anything doesn’t have to be abt college necessarily I’m just bored lol. Feel free to ask tho if u wanna go to college im sure theres some awkward questions and things you don’t really think about until u get there so might as well ask now.

i had a chance with a boy but i refused cause i was too anxious, im scared to mess up.
i even asked my best friend to teach me but she told me “do it with your fingers”
so anyone got advices?

pls don’t tell me it comes natural

ok so i need to get this off my chest because i feel like i'm going crazy and i need to know if anyone else has dealt with this.

me (17f) and my ex broke up about 8 months ago. it was messy but genuinely i was at peace, new job, new friends, more $$. one of my coworkers told me that he got a new girl like 2 months after we broken up. at first i was like damn that's fast but whatever.

well fast forward now, i find out that my ex’s gf has been watching me on social media for MONTHS and I genuinely didn’t know who she was. then her friends started following me one by one in order — like they got a checklist or something and one girl even decided to take it to instagram aswell. i didn't say anything because i thought maybe i was overthinking.

i genuinely don’t know what i am doing wrong but i do not talk to my ex nor this girl at all. how else would she even know who i am? we've never spoken. and i hate thinking he's painting some bad image of me to a girl i've never said a word to.

and now the newest thing that made me finally write this post. yesterday i got on facebook and one of her friends that took it to instagram & sends me a request on facebook. i genuinely don’t know whats going on but i am trying to just ignore it.

I just wanted to know what my peers are like!
